Mexico
Days 25 to 30: Palm Springs,
CA to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico
We bid a fond farewell to the
United States on our third border
crossing, and everything changes
as we cross the frontier and escape
from touristy Tijuana. From here
the scenery becomes turquoise
ocean bays, white sand beaches,
quiet fishing villages, and colonial
architecture. The leg’s first night
halt is in Ensenada, colourful and
Cabo San Lucas, Baja, Mexico
lively, on the coast, with rolling
hills as a backdrop. Ensenada is a
popular tourist port and centre of
the Mexican wine industry – there’s
a theme here!
The next five days see lots
of dusty tracks, challenging
regularities, cactuses, big hats,
tequila and great driving. We
cross from the Pacific Ocean to
the Sea of Cortés and back again,
enjoying the freshest fish and
warmest hospitality. There will be
an overnight stop in the beautiful
and rarely visited town of Guerrero
Negro, home to giant sand dunes
and the highest concentration of
grey whales in the world.
Finally, after a month of intense
driving, competition, adventure
and camaraderie we arrive at
the southernmost tip of the Baja
Peninsula. The resort town of Cabo
San Lucas will welcome the rally
with open arms, and this is where
the real party begins.
We hope you can join us!
